Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm

Board of Directors and Stockholders
Schuff International, Inc.
Phoenix, Arizona

We have reviewed the condensed consolidated balance sheet of Schuff International, Inc. and subsidiaries as of June 29, 2014, and the related condensed consolidated statements of income for the six-month periods ended June 29, 2014 and June 30, 2013, stockholders’ equity for the six-month period ended June 29, 2014, and cash flows for the six-month periods ended June 29, 2014 and June 30, 2013. These interim financial statements are the responsibility of the Company’s management.

We conducted our reviews in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). A review of interim financial information consists principally of applying analytical procedures and making inquiries of persons responsible for financial and accounting matters. It is substantially less in scope than an audit conducted in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board, the objective of which is the expression of an opinion regarding the financial statements taken as a whole. Accordingly, we do not express such an opinion.

Based on our reviews, we are not aware of any material modifications that should be made to the condensed consolidated financial statements referred to above for them to be in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

Schuff INTERNATIONAL, INC.
Notes to CONDENSED Consolidated INTERIM Financial Statements
(UNAUDITED)
    
Six Months Ended June 29, 2014 and June 30, 2013

1. Interim Financial Statements

Nature of Business

Schuff International, Inc. and its wholly-owned subsidiaries (“Schuff” or the “Company”) are primarily steel fabrication and erection contractors with headquarters in Phoenix, Arizona and operations in Arizona, Florida, Georgia, Texas, Kansas and California. The Company’s construction projects are primarily in the aforementioned states. In addition, the Company has construction projects in select international markets, primarily Panama.

Basis of Presentation

The accompanying condensed consolidated interim financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America for interim financial information. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by generally accepted accounting principles for complete financial statements. In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring accruals) considered necessary for a fair presentation have been included. Operating results for the six-month period ended June 29, 2014 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ending December 28, 2014. For further information, refer to the consolidated financial statements and footnotes thereto included in the Company’s Annual Report for the year ended December 29, 2013.

Recent Events

On May 29, 2014, HC2 Holdings, Inc. completed its purchase of 2,500,000 shares of the Company’s common stock from SAS Venture LLC and Scott A. Schuff at a purchase price of $31.50 per share. The purchase of the shares represents approximately 60% of the Company’s outstanding stock as of the date of purchase.

Fiscal Year

The Company uses a 4-4-5 week quarterly cycle ending on the Sunday closest to December 31. Fiscal 2014 will cover the period from December 30, 2013 to December 28, 2014 (hereinafter 2014). Fiscal 2013 covered the period from December 31, 2012 to December 29, 2013 (hereinafter 2013).

Revenue and Cost Recognition

The Company performs its services primarily under fixed-price contracts and recognizes revenues and costs from construction projects using the percentage of completion method. Under this method, revenue is recognized based upon either the ratio of the costs incurred to date to the total estimated costs to complete the project or the ratio of tons fabricated to date to total estimated tons. Revenue recognition begins when work has commenced. Costs include all direct material and labor costs related to contract performance, subcontractor costs, indirect labor, and fabrication plant overhead costs, which are charged to contract costs as incurred. Revenues relating to changes in the scope of a contract are recognized when the work has commenced, the Company has made an estimate of the amount that is probable of being paid for the change and there is a high degree of probability that the charges will be approved by the customer or general contractor. While the Company has been successful in having the majority of its change orders approved in prior years, there is no guarantee that the majority of unapproved change orders at June 29, 2014 will be approved. Revisions in estimates during the course of contract work are reflected in the accounting period in which the facts requiring the revision become known. Provisions for estimated losses on uncompleted contracts are made in the period a loss on a contract becomes determinable.

Construction contracts with customers generally provide that billings are to be made monthly in amounts which are commensurate with the extent of performance under the contracts. Contract receivables arise principally from the balance of amounts due on progress billings on jobs under construction. Retentions on contract receivables are amounts due on progress billings, which are withheld until the completed project has been accepted by the customer.

Six Months Ended June 29, 2014 and June 30, 2013

Costs and recognized earnings in excess of billings on uncompleted contracts primarily represent revenue earned under the percentage of completion method which has not been billed. Billings in excess of related costs and recognized earnings on uncompleted contracts represent amounts billed on contracts in excess of the revenue allowed to be recognized under the percentage of completion method on those contracts.

Income Taxes

The Company recognizes deferred tax assets and liabilities for the expected future tax consequences of temporary differences between the financial statement carrying amounts and the tax bases of assets and liabilities. Deferred tax assets are recognized, net of any valuation allowance, for deductible temporary differences and net operating loss and tax credit carry forwards. The Company regularly evaluates the realizeability of its deferred tax assets by assessing its forecasts of future taxable income and reviewing available tax planning strategies that could be implemented to realize the deferred tax assets. Based on this evaluation, it was determined that realization of the deferred tax assets is more likely than not.

2. Discontinued Operations

On April 26, 2013, the Company entered into an agreement with Canam Steel Corporation (“Canam”) to sell Canam substantially all of the assets of the Company’s subsidiary, Quincy Joist Company. Under the agreement, the assets included the joist plant in Buckeye, Arizona (“Arizona”), including all equipment and inventory and the joist plant (excluding the land) in Quincy, Florida (“Florida”), including all equipment and inventory. The sale of the Arizona assets was completed on June 1, 2013 and the sale of the Florida assets was completed on July 10, 2013.

3. Stock-Based Compensation

The Company recognizes compensation expense for all share-based payment awards made to employees and directors based on estimated fair values. Fair value of the restricted stock units awarded is based on the current traded price of the Company’s stock. Restricted stock grants (“Grants”) vested over three or five years. The Grants provided for accelerated vesting if there is a change in control (as defined in the agreements). As of June 29, 2014, there were no restricted stock grants with nonvested shares outstanding. All restricted stock grants were fully vested during the year ended December 29, 2013.

There was no compensation cost charged against income for the Grants for the six months ending June 29, 2014. The compensation cost that has been charged against income for the Grants was $240,000 for the six months ending June 30, 2013.

7. Long-Term Debt and Line of Credit

The Company has a Credit and Security Agreement (“Credit Facility”) with Wells Fargo Credit, Inc. (“Wells Fargo”). On May 6, 2014, the Company amended its Credit Facility, pursuant to which Wells Fargo extended the maturity date of the Credit Facility to April 30, 2019, lowered the interest rate charged in connection with borrowings under the line of credit and allowed for the issuance of a note payable totaling $5,000,000, collateralized by its real estate (“Real Estate Term Advance”). The Real Estate Term Advance has a 5 year amortization period requiring monthly principal payments and a final balloon payment at maturity. The Real Estate Term Advance has a floating interest rate of LIBOR plus 4.0% and requires monthly interest payments. The proceeds of the Real Estate Term Advance, in conjunction with cash generated from operations and borrowings under the Credit Facility, were used to pay the remaining balance of the previous real estate term loan issued under the Credit Facility.

The Company also has a Line of Credit Agreement (“International LOC”) with Banco General, S.A. in Panama.

At June 29, 2014, the Company had $10,689,000 of borrowings and $3,902,000 of outstanding letters of credit issued under its Credit Facility. There was $35,409,000 available under the Company’s Credit Facility at June 29, 2014. At June 29, 2014, the Company had no borrowings and no outstanding letters of credit issued under its International LOC. There was $3,500,000 available under the Company’s International LOC at June 29, 2014.

The Credit Facility is secured by a first priority, perfected security interest in all of the Company’s assets, excluding the real estate, and its present and future subsidiaries and a second priority, perfected security interest in all of the Company’s real estate. The security agreements pursuant to which the Company’s assets are pledged prohibit any further pledge of such assets without the written consent of the bank. The Credit Facility has a floating interest rate of LIBOR

plus 3.00% (3.23% at June 29, 2014) and requires monthly interest payments. The Credit Facility contains various restrictive covenants. At June 29, 2014, the Company was in compliance with these covenants.

The International LOC is secured by a first priority, perfected security interest in Schuff Hopsa Engineering’s (“SHE”) property and plant. The interest rate is 5.25% plus 1% of the special interest compensation fund (“FECI”). The International LOC contains covenants that, among other things, limit SHE’s ability to incur additional indebtedness, change its business, merge, consolidate or dissolve and sell, lease, exchange or otherwise dispose of its assets, without prior written notice.

9. Contingent Matters

The Company is currently and from time to time involved through the ordinary course of business in certain claims, litigation, and assessments. Due to the nature of the construction industry, the Company’s employees from time to time become subject to injury, or even death, while employed by the Company. The Company does not believe any new material contingencies arose during the six months ended June 29, 2014.

Six Months Ended June 29, 2014 and June 30, 2013

10. Comprehensive Income

Total comprehensive income for the six months ended June 29, 2014 and June 30, 2013 equaled net income for the corresponding periods.

11.Backlog

The Company's backlog was $386,947,000 ($366,913,000 under contracts or purchase orders and $20,034,000 under letters of intent) at June 29, 2014. The Company's backlog can be significantly affected by the receipt, or loss, of individual contracts. Approximately $208,219,000, representing 53.8% of the Company's backlog at June 29, 2014, was attributable to five contracts, letters of intent, notices to proceed or purchase orders. If one or more large contracts are terminated or their scope reduced, the Company's backlog could decrease substantially.

12. Subsequent Events

The Company has evaluated subsequent events through October 24, 2014, which is the date the condensed consolidated interim financial statements were available to be issued.

On October 21, 2014, the Credit Facility was amended to allow for a new $15,000,000 term loan to be used for equipment financing and working capital requirements related to a recent project award. The new term loan has a five-year amortization period with terms substantially similar to the Real Estate Term Advance. The amendment also reduces the restrictions on dividend payments to shareholders of the Company.
